the exotic Carmen Miranda as an affair--when, in reality, the Brazilian Bombshell has been teaching him how to dance so he can surprise his wife. Shallow complications ensue until all is straightened out for a saccharine finale (Powell trilling "It's a Most Unusual Day"). Taylor is breathtakingly

beautiful, but Miranda walks off with every scene she's in. Stanley Donen handled the choreography, and the songs, by a raft of composers, include Miranda's specialty, "Cuanto la Gusta."
